Whats up everybody. just messin around in sketchbook pro again and decided to make a post of it. This time i went with the immortal Hulk Hogan. No real purpose behind this on, just kinda playin around havin fun. more stuff to come soon.
Wonderful sketch, T. I'm loving the neck! You did a great job capturing his personality as well as his likeness. I truly love your work!
Incidentally, the best caricature advice I ever received? We’d have a lot of downtime before going live with Nitro, and Curt Henning loved to get me to draw caricatures of the boys on the dry erase board in the locker room. He’d say, “Draw Hogan… Now, draw him with a hearing aid… Now, draw him with a walker…” I didn’t want to do it at first, because I didn’t was to be disrespectful or piss the guys off. When I told Curt this, his reply was, “Let me handle it. I’ll tell them you don’t make the news, you just report it.” Now I don’t think twice about injecting humor and exaggeration in my caricatures, LOL!
thanks for stopping by lash, glad you like my work and its awesome to hear i got hogan's likeness from someone who actually knows the guy. I think im gonna do a finished version of this one, ive been seeing a lot of hogan since he joined TNA and i keep getting this urge to paint him. by the way i love what he and bischoff are doing in TNA,in a good way its starting to feel like its the 90's again
